The activities in the physical activity pyramid from top to bottom are Homework, Weight training, Soccer practice and Walking to school.
Activities are organized by the physical activity pyramid based on their intensity and recommended frequency. When listing the activities according to the physical activity pyramid, the correct order from top to bottom would be:
- Homework (sedentary activity)
- Weight training (muscle-strengthening activities, 2 or more days per week)
- Soccer practice (vigorous-intensity exercise)
- Walking 30 minutes to school (lifestyle activity - daily activities)
The physical activity pyramid is a guide that helps prioritize different types of activities based on their contribution to physical fitness and health. At the base of the pyramid, we have the most frequent activities, such as walking, which should be done daily for at least 60 minutes.
As we move up the pyramid, the frequency generally decreases but the intensity of the activities increases, with muscle-strengthening activities like weight training recommended at least twice a week. At the very top of the pyramid are sedentary activities like doing homework, which should be minimized.
